Standardise usage of 8vo (4to, 16mo, etc) #167

Closed robinwhittleton closed 3 weeks ago

robinwhittleton commented 3 weeks ago

Our corpus has varied uses of 8vo, 8vo., <abbr>8vo</abbr> and <abbr>8vo.</abbr>. Should we add something to the abbreviations section about it?

(I don’t have a recommendation one way or another on this really.)

Yes, that would sense. I think <abbr>8vo</abbr> would be the way to go.
